Meditation Reflection
A. First, take note of the moods you’ve experienced.
I am currently stressed out about school and internships. Im worried i won’t be able to get anything for the summer and I’m not doing so great this semester in my classes.
B. Assess your overall level of anxiety on a scale of 1 to 10.
I would say my anxiety level is a 5.
C. Assess the level of physical tension in your body- where do you notice the tension? Try rating your overall tension on a scale of 1 to 10.
My level of physical tension is 5. Ummm my tension would probably be in my shoulders.
III. After you have finished your meditation, re-asses your
state of mind and body.
A. Reassess your mood on the chart.
When I was done meditating, my mind was very clear compared to before. I felt less stressed. My shoulders were a bit more relaxed and i was more calm.
B. Reassess your level of anxiety from 1 to 10.
My anxiety level is currently a 2.
C. Reassess your level of physical tension and rate it from 1 to 10.
My physical tension level is a 2.
IV. Describe the experience– What type of meditation did you
choose? Describe what was going on in your mind and your body, what kind of thoughts and sensations did you experience during the meditation? Were there any challenging or frustrating aspects of the experience, and if so, what were they? Would you try this again in the future? Why or why not?
I’ve decided to do the Guided Meditation by Mark Abramson. My mind and body was focused on just breathing and i tried not to think about anything else. At first, it was hard to block thoughts, but it got easier as I got used to mediating. It was very relaxing and that focus helped me become less stressed about school and work. Since i really am a person who dwells on things it real helped me get my mind off it. I will try this again to help me focus on other things to avoid stress and anxiety.
